So all this talk about what you don't like about the US top gear.
What would you do to the show to make it better, or better yet would would you like to see,and what extra stuff you add???

I always thought the idea of having the audience standing around was silly. It's bad enough they have to listen to those idiots, let them sit down.

I would put myself as a host.
Background: Grew up working in my famlies 3 full service gas stations, former Aircraft Electrician- US Marine Corps. Have built many custom cars; VW, Mopar, Porsche, Mustang Concourse resto. I'm a former judge fo the International Auto Sound Challenge Association. I have had my cars featured in Popular Hot Rodding, Mopar Collectors Guide and Mopar Action. In 2004-2005 I assisted Chrysler with the debut of the 300C SRT-8, Magnum SRT-8, Viper SRT-10. I had my 1969 Dodge Super Bee featured in a 30 second spot for the Rumble Bee truck. In 2005 I provided 32 Hemi powered vehicles for the International Auto show in Anaheim. I have done some automobile marketing with BBDO, one of the oldest marketing firms in the country. In my early years I studied with the American Conservatory Theater.

Wow, I never put all that down in one place. Most of this didn't even make it to my resume.

BUT, I think I'm just as quallified as any of those dip shits. AND, I would have fixed the shift linkage of that 914 they tried to sell.
